A lazy, shiftless loafer who berates coaches. Just great.

Maybe Jeff Kent knew what he was talking about years ago when he said the Kemp, and some other young Dodgers, played the game without the proper reverence and respect.

Good thing it wasn't Gibby, who by the way gets a well deserved shot at manager for the Diamondbacks, Kemp would still be looking for his cup.

I have watched Matt Kemp's career since he was with the Vero Beach Dodgers. I have spoken to him during Spring Training as well. He is polite, respectful and gentleman. Just because he had an argument with a coach (anyone remember Rob Dibble and Lou Piniella or Billy Martin and Reggie Jackson) does not make him a jerk. Jeff Kent is the one who was an ass and a dugout cancer. Kemp is a great guy and an even better ball player.

Well then, we'll take your word on that. I'm sure the lack of hustle and work ethic is just an anomoly, not at all representaive of those of his ilk.
